Question

The sum of the page numbers on the facing pages of a book is 629. what are the page numbers

Answer 1

So basically, these numbers have to be consecutive because they're facing pages.

So you can just divide this by 2, and then add one to the second number.

629/2 = 314 R1

So the first page number is 314, and for the second one, just add one, and you get 315.

Answer 2

We are looking for consecutive numbers.....x and x + 1

x + x + 1 = 629
2x + 1 = 629
2x = 629 - 1
2x = 628
x = 628/2
x = 314

x + 1 = 314 + 1 = 315

so ur 2 page numbers are 314 and 315
